Collmer Intros R Series of Junction Temperature Protected IPMs

February 28, 1999 by Jeff Shepard

Collmer Semiconductor Inc. (Dallas) introduced the new R Series of junction temperature protected IPMs (Intelligent Power Modules) from Fuji Electric (Japan). The R Series is available in both 6 and 7 pack modules rated from 15A to 300A in both 600V and 1200V versions.

The all-silicon chip IPMs use NPT IGBTs for 1200V and fine-pattern PT IGBTs for 600V. The R Series modules feature integral gate drivers and a number of protection features: junction over-temperature, baseplate over-temperature, output overcurrent, output short-circuit and power-supply undervoltage.
